I can’t. It’s like asking a parent to pick their favourite child!

Palace Revolution 2000
EXILE - IMO it is the greatest rock'n roll album ever done. The supposed "weaker" cuts are what makes it special. Lyrics are stellar.
STICKY - It is lean and mean. Not one bad wasted note on the album. It is hard to put this at #2 because it is perfect and also has that monster single
Brown Sugar/Bitch. Plus two of the greatest Stones ballads. The insane jam of CYHMK; soul and Blues and Country. I think I just slightly prefer the sheer decadence of "Exile".
BANQUET - The acoustic album. What I love about the album among other things, is how they created massive sound using imagination. Or "Thinking outside the box" as they say. The engineering of SFM. And "Sympathy" - the power of that song is fueled only by Piano, Bass and congas, shaker and drums. Plus a scorcher of a guitar solo.
BLEED - It opens with Gimme Shelter" and ends with YCAGWYW. Incredible bookends. The slight drawback IMO is the studio versions of Rambler.

ive always preferred beggars to the other 3, i bought exile and sticky on the same day back in november 1988, bought beggars may 1989 and let it bleed june 1989, i already knew most songs on exile and sticky before i bought beggars, and i was really surprised, i just felt it was more mature than exile and sticky and let it bleed was great too but beggars songs which elevated it to first place where no expectations, stray cat blues, dear doctor and jigsaw puzzle, the top 4 albums top everything but 1968 for me is hard to compete with regarding the stones.
imagine if jj flash and child of the moon had been inserted to.
what a list of songs that would be
jj flash
sympathy for the devil
no expectations
parachute woman
dear doctor
street fighting man
salt of the earth
child of the moon
stray cat blues
jigsaw puzzle

1. Beggars: best of Stones w Brian, and Stones w Brian are my fav version of the band.
2. Exile: best of Stones w/o Brian. Could even be my fav rock LP ever.
3. Fingers: the Back in Black of the Stones. Side 1 is perfect. Side 2 almost.
4. Bleed: like a woman that everybody considers stunning, and IS stunning, a woman that I should feel ashamed to confess I don't like, yet ...
